• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt

• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 2 tablespoons milk
• 1/2 cup strawberries, pureed for glaze

Directions :

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
3. In another bowl, mix the melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until combined.
4. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the chopped strawberries.
5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
6. For the glaze, mix powdered sugar with milk and strawberry puree until smooth.
7. Once the bread has cooled, drizzle the glaze over the top and enjoy!

how to serve Glazed Strawberry Bread

Slice the bread and serve at room temperature. It is good plain or with a thin spread of butter or cream cheese. Serve with coffee or tea for breakfast or snack.

how to store Glazed Strawberry Bread

tips to make Glazed Strawberry Bread

• Use ripe but firm strawberries so they do not add too much water.
• Chop strawberries small so they spread evenly in the batter.
• Do not overmix after adding wet and dry ingredients; stir until just combined.
• Check the bread at 50 minutes to avoid overbaking.
• Let the bread cool slightly so the glaze stays on top instead of running off.

variation (if any)

• Add 1/2 cup chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for crunch.
• Mix in 1/2 cup white chocolate chips for extra sweetness.
• Substitute frozen strawberries (thawed and drained) if fresh are not available.
• Make a lemon glaze by using lemon juice instead of strawberry puree.

FAQs

Q: Can I use frozen strawberries?
A: Yes. Thaw them and drain extra liquid before folding into the batter.

Q: How do I know when the bread is done?
A: Insert a toothpick in the center. If it comes out clean or with a few dry crumbs, it is done.

Q: Can I make mini loaves or muffins?
A: Yes. Reduce bake time and check often. Muffins take about 18-22 minutes.

Q: Can I use oil instead of butter?
A: Yes. Use the same amount of neutral oil like canola or vegetable oil.

Q: How thick should the glaze be?
A: The glaze should be pourable but not too thin. Add milk slowly until you reach a smooth, dippable texture.
